}Query Snowflake query patterns
One row per group of Snowflake query-pattern workload activity. Activity is grouped to the hour for a request that asks about hours, and to the day otherwise.
Returns one row per combination of the requested dimensions, carrying the requested measures. Each row is keyed by dimension and measure name. row_count is the number of rows in items: results are not paginated, so an aggregation with more rows than limit is cut short at limit rather than continued under a page_token. Send X-Team-Id to evaluate the query as a team you belong to; rows are then limited to what that team’s roles reach.
Use this route to find the repeated SQL statements (query patterns) that cost the most, run the slowest, fail the most or grow the fastest. A query pattern is one normalized statement, named by query_pattern_id and query_type. The table holds the queries of every workload type, and resource_type tells which. The SELECT app’s Query Patterns page applies resource_type in ["query_pattern"]. This filter keeps only the queries that no other workload (dbt, tasks, BI tools and so on) claims. Without it, the queries of dbt models, tasks and BI tools rank too.
sum_spend is the cost in dollars. sum_spend_annualized is a run-rate, not spend in the period. executions counts queries. For individual queries, use snowflake-queries. To compare query patterns with other workload types, use snowflake-workloads. A request that names hour, start_hour_of_day or start_hours_of_day reads the hourly table. first_run_time is available only on the daily table.

}Authorizations
Organization API key (sl_…).
Headers
Act as this team: rows are limited to what the team's roles reach instead of the caller's own. The caller must be a member of the team or hold the organization-wide permission the route requires.
The organization ID the request is scoped to.
Body
Aggregate Snowflake query-pattern workload activity over a period.
Query patterns are stored twice, rolled up to the day and to the hour. A
request naming hour, start_hour_of_day or start_hours_of_day reads the
hourly table; anything else reads the daily rollup.
The date the new_in_period dimension measures from. Omit to take it from the earliest date the query's own filters allow.
Categorize against these set definitions instead of the organization's saved usage group sets, for evaluating a set before saving it. Omit to use the saved sets, which is what every other surface reports against.

Maximum rows to return. Omit for no limit. An aggregation that produces more rows than this is silently cut short at the limit.
x >= 1Return the SQL that produced the rows alongside them, for inspecting how a result was computed. Not every query endpoint publishes its SQL; where it does not, the field stays null.
Reshape the result so the named dimensions become columns rather than rows. Each remaining dimension yields one row, carrying a pivot_data object keyed by the pivoted dimension values. Every name in pivot.on must also appear in dimensions.

Show child attributes
Return the result as a tree rather than a flat list, grouping the named dimensions into one level per tree depth. One request fetches the top level; a follow-up naming rollup.parent_paths fetches the children of the nodes expanded so far, so a deep hierarchy is read a level at a time. Every name in rollup.dimensions must also appear in dimensions.
Show child attributes
Show child attributes
Aggregate the matching rows. Set false to return the underlying rows as they are, projecting the requested dimensions with no grouping — a listing rather than an aggregation. It is honored only for a request that asks for no measures and no measure_filters, since an aggregate has to group to be computable; limit, when set, bounds the rows returned either way.
Response
Successful Response
Opaque cursor for the next page; empty/absent on the last page.
Best-effort total for the filtered result set; may be null when expensive.
The SQL that produced these rows, returned only when the request asks for it. Database and schema names are left as placeholders. Null when the request did not ask for it, or when this endpoint does not publish its SQL.
